Anyone with a power top on a 1964 beaumont. I am in need of a cardboard template( or some exact measurements) of where to cut the hole in the lower dash. Also a photo of a for sure correct 1964 top switch, just to clarify that they are indeed different than the 1965's. (i believe the 1965 is the same as a 64/65...

So I got my steering wheel all together after replacing the turn signal actuator, found the fuse had blown, replaced that and the signals lights worked a couple of times and now nothing! My 4 ways still work and the horn works, it seems now there is no power going to the turn signal actuator cam where the...

Hello, I am having a heck of time finding a turn signal actuating cam for my 1968 Beaumont, it seems to be very unique! Please see the enclosed picture, the turn signal actually has to fit in the middle of it. I have tried a Dorman one for a Ford which didn't fit.

Does anyone have a picture of what the horn contact should look like for a 1968 Beaumont without tilt? Mine just seems to have a spring coming out of it.

Has anyone bought a repro 67 Beaumont (GTO) dash pad? I was talking to someone today who needs one and he is wondering about the quality of them.

Can anyone tell me where I could find the paint code or buy a spray bomb of paint in the original color like the dash bezel insert shown below. It is the same color as the gauges, and I would like to repaint mine to original look. I have pretty much ran out of leads here and am hoping someone has managed to so...

My 67 Beaumont custom 4dr has always had this steering wheel. It has the small "thumb" buttons on it. My custom parts cars(3) also had the buttons, as well as my original custom convertible, and for the most part, just about every 67 beaumont custom i have seen, has the extra buttons. Also, the original...

Hello. I?m having issues with the heater control. The selection lever moves from heat to defrost, but won?t shut off. The lever moves but it doesn?t seem to close the flapper, so heat is always coming out. Not so nice on a hot day. I can?t seem to figure out how to access the heating chamber under the dash...

I have to change my steering wheel as the old one was breaking up. Put on a grant wheel, hooked everything up and the horn worked for a while, now all I can hear is a clicking sound when I pust the horn button? Looks like there is some kind of a relay that the horn is attached to? Could it be the relay?

My signal light seldom cancels when I turn the one direction, maybe once in ten. Works fine the other direction. Have it apart now and everything looks intact, not much wear as I had put a new one in when I restored the car. When I turn it, it just wants to kick it about half the way back. Looks like I should be...

I have an opportunity to purchase a absolutely mint complete dash for a 69 beaumont. I know this is a hard to find item, so was looking for some input as to a fair price to offer. To have an old one repaired by Just Dashes in California can be as much as $2000 US. A dash cap is in the $200 range. Uncracked orig...

If anyone is wanting to switch over from a column shift to floor shift on a '69 Beaumont and wants the column to match (getting rid of that after thought of a shift quadrant).

I installed a aftermarket tach in my car, hooked everything up to what seemed to be the proper connections, however now the light on the tach is very bright when I turn on lights and the lights in the factory gauges are very dim.
